Most of all, Mostafa says, he wishes the Greek coast guard had never approached their boat: “If they had left us be, we wouldn’t have drowned.”
Too angry to comment, except you should read this if you haven’t been following the story.

While big tech tries to force employees back to the office, smaller tech companies are using remote work as a competitive advantage to hire and retain talent. 81% of firms <5,000 employees allow remote work or have a remote work option.

Liberal Zionists who are trying to save Israel from itself have adopted a term fashioned by the left-- "one-state reality"-- and are calling for U.S. pressure against Jewish colonization of the West Bank.

I'm sure he thinks he's the victim here, not the trans people caught in the back-and-forth of whether they'll be able to get appropriate treatment in their state.
I'm glad to see yet another restriction on trans people getting care struck down, this time on whether Medicaid will cover treatment.

So I get confused sometimes as to why a racist, misogynistic, molester, and probable alcoholic could have been elected to the supreme court.
Then I remember the racist, misogynistic, molesters, and probable alcoholics that elected him... and it all makes sense again.
Justice Gorsuch highlighted the mistreatment of tribal communities by the federal government in a SCOTUS decision saying Justice Kavanaugh’s majority opinion neglected the circumstances leading to an 1868 water-rights treaty involving the Navajo Nation.

Malaria used to be endemic and not uncommon in the United States as far north as Chicago, before being eradicated by large-scale public health campaigns involving the draining of mosquito breeding sites and pesticide spraying.
This resurgence in Florida really wants to happen. The disease and the insect vector are both happy here, and I really wish people appreciated the scale of government involvement required to keep Malaria out.

The G.O.P.-led House formally censured Representative Adam B. Schiff, Democrat of California, on Wednesday over his role investigating former President Donald J. Trump, the first in what could be a series of votes seeking to punish those whom Republicans have deemed the party’s enemies.
The censure passed by a party-line vote of 213 to 209 with six Republicans voting “present.” The measure had the backing of Speaker Kevin McCarthy after its lead sponsor, Representative Anna Paulina Luna, Republican of Florida, altered its language to remove a multimillion-dollar fine some Republicans viewed as unconstitutional.
